HERMAN RENFORS, OF KAJANA, RUSSIA.

AUXILIARY STOCK FOR FIREARMS.

Specification of Letters Patent.

Patented March 9, 1909.

Application filed November 18, 1907. Serial No. 402,655.

To all whom it may concern:

Be it known that I, HERMAN RENFoRs, a subject of the Czar of Russia, residing at Kajana, Finland, Russia, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Auxiliary Stocks for Firearms; and I do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and use the same.

The invention to be hereinafter described relates to supports for firearms, and more particularly to a support for small arms.

The present invention is devised as an improvement on a support of the same general character disclosed in Patent Number 899,617.

In order to more clearly disclose the construction, operation and use of the invention, reference should be had to the accompanying drawings forming part of the specification.

In order to more clearly disclose the construction, operation and use of the invention, reference should be had to the accompanying drawings forming part of the present application.

Throughout the several figures of the drawings, like reference characters designate the same parts.

In the drawings: Figure 1 is a side elevation of the invention, as applied, and in closed position; Fig. 2 is a similar view in extended position; Fig. 3 is a front view of the support, closed; and, Fig. 4 is a longi tudinal section through part of the tele smipic tube, partially extended.

eferring to the drawings in detail, a in dicates the outer end, or larger tubular section of a telescopic rod or tube, to which is secured a clip (1, which, in turn, supports a slightly resilient or elastic sleeve 5, adapted to receive and support the butt or stock of a revolver or other small arm. It is essential, of course, that the telescopic sections be prevented from sliding completely out of each other. To this end, each section is provided with a flange 0 on one end, and a collar on its opposite end, the flange on one section being adapted to engage the collar on the next section. In this way, the supportlmay he lengthened or shortened, as desirec.

It is thought that the operation and use of the invention will be clear from thepreceding detailed description.

Changes may be made in the construction, arrangement and disposition of the several parts, without in any way departing from the field and scope of the invention, and it is meant to include all such within this application, wherein only a preferred form has been shown and described.

Having thus fully described my invention, what I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is

1. A support of the character described, comprising a sleeve adapted to be connected to the stock of a firearm, a telescopic rod, a second sleeve, connections between said second sleeve and said telescopic rod, and connections between said first and second sleeves.

2. A support of the character described, comprising a sleeve adapted to be connected to the stock of a firearm, a tubular telescopic rod, a second sleeve, connections between said second sleeve and said telescopic rod, and connections between said first and second sleeves.

3. A support of the character described, comprising a sleeve adapted to be connected to the stock of a firearm, a telescopic rod, a second sleeve, connections between said second sleeve and said telescopic rod, connections between said first and second sleeves, and flanges on the sections of said telescopic rod adapted to prevent complete separation of them.

In witness whereof I have hereunto set my hand in the presence of two witnesses.

HERMAN RENFORS.
